Some people will ask that china's history of participating in the Olympic Games is very short, and the earliest participation in the Olympic Games was in 1984 (I am talking about counting from the founding of New China). But in just over 30 short years, our athletes have achieved astonishing results, ranking third in the overall list of gold medals in Olympic history and third in the overall Olympic medal table. It's a brilliance that can't be believed. So what is it that supports the athletes of our country to achieve such results?
First, I think China is at the Olympics
The humiliation in the early days inspired the people to attach importance to the Olympic Games, and people also hoped to win gold in the Olympic Games to wash away the humiliation of the motherland. In the modern history before the founding of New China, the great country with four thousand years of culture suffered the most humiliating era in history, and at the moment when the Chinese nation suffered from the crisis of extinction, all aspects of China ushered in the darkest moment. In particular, China's sports industry, China's first Olympic person Liu Changchun, empty of the heart of sports to serve the country, in that era can only be overshadowed, even if Liu Changchun has this outstanding strength, in the face of the motherland's weakened national strength can only suffer humiliation.

This is a humiliation that China must not forget. After the founding of New China, at the time of the global Cold War, the sports industry was the biggest stage for China to show its strength to the world, and it was also a witness to China's washing away humiliation and rejuvenation. Therefore, since 1984, after Xu Haifeng won the first gold medal in the history of the Chinese Olympic Games, China's athletes have reported the ambition of rejuvenating the country through sports, worked hard, and achieved such results.
At the Olympic Games, Chinese athletes can achieve good results without the great spiritual support of the Chinese nation. Being down-to-earth is the national spirit of the Chinese nation and the guarantee that Chinese athletes can achieve good results in the Olympic Games. In the eyes of the people, the seemingly easy victory of Chinese athletes in the Olympic Games is actually inseparable from the continuous and down-to-earth training of sports athletes every day. For Ma Long, the gold medalist in the men's singles competition of table tennis at the 2020 Tokyo Olympic Games, Ma Long has been studying table tennis in Anshan, Liaoning Province since he was 5 years old, and after years of training, he has achieved the legend of table tennis.

There are countless Chinese athletes like this. With the chinese national spirit as a guarantee, Chinese athletes can become stronger and stronger.
In this year's 2020 Tokyo Olympic Games, more athletes have emerged and won glory for the motherland. So far, our country has ranked first in the Olympic medal table with a score of 20 gold.
I hope that in the next competition, Chinese athletes can fight more and more courageously, brave the strong enemy, win the gold medal, and win glory for the motherland.
